July 2003 - Around San Francisco

Tote looking up Lombard Street. It's called the "world's crookedest street." We're told that there's another street in San Francisco that is more crooked - more switchbacks on a shorter street - but we haven't found it yet. We are staying about a block from the top.
The switchbacks date from 1922. The flowers from after World War II when a resident imported thousands of hydrangeas from France.
